BosroN, Sept. 12-lSpecial Telegram to
the BEE. Mrs. Connor and her five chill
dren, who have been besieged in their Mount
Vernon street home by five evictors, who are
watching night and day to put them out,
scored Q point yesterday by getting her hus-
band into the house. 1t is two weeks since

Mrs. Connor locked the doors on them,
Neither she nor the children have stirred out
of the rooms, and Mr.. Connor, who was out
when the evctors arrived, had not got nearer
to his family than the sidewalk Mr.. Con-
nor to-day went into the back room of the
family next door and frightened up the
clothes line that runs out to a post In the
yard. Mrs. Connor did the same with her
clothes line. The husband borrowed the
ironing board and laid 1t upon the two
clothes lines and cautiously crawled on his
belly to the window of his own room, where
his delighted wife threw her arms about him
and pulled him into the house. The children
danced up and down IN delight and the con-
stables In the hall pounded on the door to
try and allay their happiness. Later it was
found that the water supply was cut off and
q rubber pipe was procured and connected
with the pipes of neighbOrs.

Not q Russian Count.

NEW YORK, Sept. l2.-TSpecial Telegram
to the BEE. l-Mitkiewlcz is advertising him
self largely. A Washington paper devOtes
page to giving his biography, stating that he
was born in Warsaw. in 1885, in Mitklewicz
palace, and that his mother was Polish lady
of high rank. The account closes thus:
1.-The counts latest achievement, that of OBJ
tanning the Chinese empire concessions just
granted, will cause his name to go down to
posterity as one of the most remarkable men
OF the nineteenth century." There are sew
eral Russian gentlemen in Washington, and
many of them are indignant over the fact
that Mitkiewlcz persists in asserting that he
is noblemen of Russian birth. One of
them determined to get an authoritative de-
nial from the authorities In Warsaw of the
right of this man to claim the title of count.
He cabled to Poland, and this is the reply
which he received: "There exists no Count
Mitkiewicz in Warsaw, Poland, or Russia:
The Mitkiewicz in America is swindler and
imposter."

CHICAGO, Sept. Ex-senator Charles b.

sentative of the Daily News regarding the
suggestion that his name be used in the next
republican national convention as Chicago's
candidate for the presidency of the United
States. Mr.. Farwell at first would say moth
Ing. Persistent efforts finally overcame his
reserve and he made answer that it would
be time enough to consider what action he
would take when his name was endorsed by
the convention. Congressman Mason, of
this city, is credited with the first mention of
Farwelrs name in this connection. The
News interview calls attention to the cir
cumstance that Farwell is self-made man, a
merchant prince, the successor of Logan In
the councils of the nation, and estimates
that the statesman and millionaire upon
whose brow all these hOnOrs rest would prove
a suitable choice for even the exalted Office
of chief executive. Senator Farwcll stated
